Everything was easy to handle for me and went well. My songs were quickly published on the selected platforms. The information given to overcome the tax-related entries were helpful, too. Thanks!

To start with

To start with, I did make a subscription to another distributor and for more than a month I have been trying to get one track on Spotify. They rejected it and told me I need to make small edits to be accepted. This small edit seems to be impossible to do, because their platform ignore my edits every time when I click on the submit button, so my track is rejected over and over again. I got frustrated and subscribed to your platform, and my track is already on Spotify within 3 days...

Everything here is better than many…

Everything here is better than many other services. I will get my one complaint out of the way now. When uploading lyrics, they sometimes vanish after a week or a month. Why? I don't know.

NOW THE POSITIVES:
DistroKid gets it right every time. They publish to all the services and let you carry over plays, and credits. They let you upload lyrics and music videos all on the same platform. Many other services claim to charge less, but you get what you pay for.

My experience with DistroKid has been…

My experience with DistroKid has been amazing! I just released my new single MAN NO RACE as GAVKIZH and it went live on Spotify, Apple Music, TikTok and all platforms very fast. Very easy to use, affordable and perfect for independent artists like me from Nigeria. I love that I keep 100% of my earnings. 5 stars - Highly recommended!

Improve the process, less is more!

I believe setting up an account is very overwhelming for a beginner. I almost just requested my money back. Also don't like all the add on requests inside the process. Each costing more and more. Come up with a package tiered rate system. I was frustrated going through all that. Hope it was worth it. Time will tell.
